He was a partner in the firm Triage Motion Picture Services. He and his company restored such films as <em>The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly, Woman in The Window, A Fistfull of Dollars, All That Jazz, Sweet Smell Of Success, Flashdance, It&#8217;s A Gift, Once Upon A Time In The West, Duck You Sucker, Tom Jones, etc. etc. <\/em>Too many to mention. I first met Tony back in 1991, I was editing a short film, Tony was working for an optical company. He had just learned about optical printing and this was his first film job. I heard about a custom Black and White Lab in the Valley called Cinetech, I hired them to handle the printing of the film. The owner met Tony and hired him to work at his lab. That&#8217;s where Tony learned the ins and outs of film restoration. A few years later he partnered up with Paul Rutan and they founded Triage. I helped them move into their HQ on Larchmont. Tony was a great writer, a guitar player, a wonderful guy that everyone will miss. My heartfelt condolences go out to his wife Sue, his son Calvin, his dad and everybody that knew him and loved him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00c2\u00a0 Tony and Sue Monroe Tony Munroe passed away this morning at the too young age of 47.
